Acerca de esta escucha

This tech could change everything for women―here's how.

Women make over 80% of healthcare decisions in the U.S., yet only 4% of all medical research and development is focused on women's health issues. From periods and childbirth to menopause, female pain has been normalized, as society shrugs and says "Welcome to being a woman," instead of coming up with better solutions. But it doesn't have to be this way. In The Vagina Business, award-winning journalist Marina Gerner, Ph.D. takes an eye-opening look at the innovators challenging the status quo to deliver the healthcare solutions women need.

With interviews from 100 entrepreneurs across 15 countries, The Vagina Business explores the future of women's health, where female-focused companies are developing products to help women at every stage of life. Some of these products include:

  • A bra with EKG technology that can predict heart attacks early
  • An in-home fertility system that uses your saliva to predict ovulation
  • Apps to help women get access to medical abortions and perform them at home safely
  • A vaginal and pelvic floor dilator that could drastically reduce the rate of vaginal tearing in birth
  • Healthcare apps tailored to LGBTQIA people and their needs, without stigma
  • Devices to restore the pelvic floor and vagina during menopause

Gerner also takes the listener inside the boardroom—where only 2.1% of venture capital dollars go toward companies founded by women—and issues a rallying cry: Women should not be denied solutions to health issues because of embarrassment and ignorance. Every woman deserves better.

Incredibly informative and infuriating- well worth the read!

This book is jam packed full of information that you are almost guaranteed to learn something from. It will both inspire and enrage you, possibly in equal measure. Delight in the stories of the amazing women creating and innovating, and be frustrated and disappointed in the reasons their innovations are often dismissed or ignored because they only help women. We have a very high tolerance for women’s suffering, and have been shamed for trying to discuss issues for so long that many of us have just “learned to live with it.” This book revels in showing us that no, we do not have to live with it, and there are tons of folks out there making it their mission to help.
